Depends on which lake and what size boat. We live on Lake Wylie (sw of Charlotte). We have a dock at the house, but I checked Tega Cay Marine web site. They have 20 to 26 foot covered and uncovered docks. I have seen pontoons and vee hulls as large as 28 feet or more in their slips - and annual fees run $1700-1900 uncovered and $2500 for covered slips. There are other marinas on the lake - not sure is their fees are the same
Lake Norman is the large lake, nw of Charlotte. Have no idea what they charge but you could likely do a search for marinas.
There are several other small lakes around, both west of Charlotte, south of Charlotte and NE of Charlotte. Not sure if they have marinas or not.

Forgot to mention... We love the boating here, having relocated from the Annaplois, MD area. The boating season is quite long - very comfortable temperatures from late March through late November and usually a week each month during the winter that has warn weather. Lake Wylie is never very crowded and has lots of rivers off the main channel to explore or just anchor out. Lot of water sports, fishing, etc. Boats tend to range from 20-25 foot bowriders, lots of pontoons, ski boats, jet skis, and plenty of larger cruisers. There is only one restaurant with slips on the lake, but it is pretty nice.
I think Lake Norman is more active (and it is 2-1/2 times larger) but I hear there is also more partying which isnt what we were looking for.

We just moved to Lake Norman, and so far we enjoy it. There are numerous marinas around the lake, with styles that vary from the laid back casual to the full tilt party scene. There are several restaurants on the lake that can be accessed via boat - again the styles that vary from casual to move formal.
Here is a great resource for info on the local lakes including marinas, restuarants, access ramps, etc. http://www.pilotmedia.us/Piedmont/plfeatures.htm
The lake can be crowded on weekends and there are a good number of bigger boats running around. The south end of the lake is normally busier with boats, but farther north you can find quite places to hang out. Slips fees are not bad - I have a 13' x 30' that runs just a little over $3k per year.
